Selecting the Media Type and General Options

InstallShield 2015 » InstallScript Project Tutorial

Media Type Panel

In the Media Type panel, you specify the type of media for which you are building a release. The media type you specify indicates the size of the disk image folders the Release Wizard creates: when you build a release for CD-ROM, the Release Wizard divides your disk images into folders, each of which is smaller than 650 MB.

For this tutorial, select CD-ROM.

Click Next to specify general options for your release.

General Options Panel

The General Options panel lets you do the following:

• Create a self-extracting executable file for distributing your installation
• Pass command line options to Setup.exe
• Pass preprocessor variable definitions to the compiler
• Select whether to place the compiled script file (.inx file) in a cabinet file

For this tutorial, leave the panel’s default settings unchanged.
